On that, but also on the collision of the corona and the flu, also known as the “perfect storm”, then on catering and antikovid measures, students, masks, but also passengers in the GSP and control of the application of measures, talk in the program “Thursday at 9” on RTS. The mayor of Belgrade, Dr. Zoran Radojicic, the immunologist Dr. Srdja Jankovic and the virologist Dr. Nada Kuljic Kapuljica.
As long as people gather in large numbers, do not keep their distance, and do not wear masks, an increase in the number of infected people is expected, said Dr. Janković.
According to Radojicic, of 204 newly infected people today, 36% are positive in Belgrade.
– If we look from October 1, those are numbers from 23 to 87 percent positive. These are just some data that illustrate how positive Belgrade is, but it is expected for a city like this that has so much circulation – said Radojicic, adding that the vast majority of Belgraders, especially the elderly, adhere to the measure.
Dr. Nada Kuljić Kapuljica said that if we look at the numbers that are displayed every day in relation to the number of hospitalized and the number of patients on a ventilator, then it is clear to everyone that the clinical picture is easier.
– From the beginning I said that the virus cannot be weakened. Certain mutations have also been tested. However, that’s just a small start of something. It takes a lot of time and money to test everything. The virus is new, something is happening to it, even changing the clinical picture. Everything takes time – said Dr. Kuljić Kapuljica.
The virus is changing, Dr. Janković confirmed. The time factor affects the number of people who are hospitalized and / or who use a respirator.
– Now, fewer people with a heavier image can deceive us. One of the first measures would be the obligation to wear masks outdoors, where there are contacts. After the meeting we will know if it will be necessary to tighten some other measures. It is important that all measures are applied jointly and consistently – said Dr. Janković.
Let us remind you, in the last 24 hours in Serbia, 6,504 people were tested for the corona virus, 203 of them were positive, while sadly two people died. According to the latest data, there are 25 patients on ventilators in Serbian hospitals, up from 22 yesterday. Doctors warn that the number of patients in Kovid hospitals is growing.
Tomorrow there will be a Crisis Staff session due to the jump in the number of infected in our country and the appearance of a significant number of patients in several cities in Serbia. The introduction of new measures may be discussed in the session.
Some of these measures, judging by the statements of the members of the Crisis Staff this morning, could be mandatory to wear protective masks outdoors when contacts occur; then reduce meetings from 30 to a maximum of 5 people or complete the ban on meetings; local movement bans, not throughout Serbia; closing cinemas and theaters and stricter measures to enter Serbia.
